the mailing list?  Make it look something like this:


Before posting, make sure that you:

1) READ THE DOCUMENTATION!
It's available here:
http://mythtv.org/modules.php?name=MythInstall

2) SEARCH THE ARCHIVES!
You can do that here:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/archive/MythTV_C2/Users_F11/

3) IF YOU'RE USING CVS: USE THE SOURCE, LUKE!
Turn on debugging and make backtraces.  Those make Isaac happy.
Read about using gdb here:
